Pewuic Resoicines —The happy termination of the Kansas struggle in Congress on Friday bas been the theme of general Tejoicing among our citizens. They find in it a reason to believe that there ts stil! left in the American people too much of patriotism and intelligence for fanati- cism to triumph over reason in effecting a disin- tegration of this Union. On Frida evening the event was announced, as we have before st: ted, by the firing of cannoo, and other manifestations approval. These demonstrations were repeated on Saturday evening, and in addition thereto it was determined to signalize the occa- sion by serenading the President. This attracted a large crowd, comprising citizens and strangers of all parties. among whom were several distin- ae me men wlo addressed the assem- lage. On the procession having reached the Executive Mansion the band played “ Hail Co- lumbia,’* and three cheers were President. Ere they subsided, Mr. Buchanan appeared at the wi yw over the hall door, and. addresved the multitude, as follows: Gentlemen: I feel very mach honored by the kindness which you have displayed in coming in such respectable numbers to give me a serenade. 1 bave long been acquainted with Washington. I have been intimate with my fellow-citizens of this city for a longer peried than many of you have lived, and I have never received any thing but kindness, attention, and good will from the population of this District. (Cheers) I thank you most cordially that the kindness which your fathers have exténded to me still lives in the breasts of their children, and I hope when I leave this city, if f live to return to my quiet home, I sball carry with me your affectionate regard, which I shall endeavor to deserve. [Applause } ‘This is a great occasion on which you bave as- semoled. It is farab:ve men. The best inter- ests of the country were involved in the long contest which has so happily terminated [Ap- plause.] I hope and believe the result will tend to promote the peace and porary of our glo- tious Union, [cheers ;] and, of all the Rrople upon the face of the earth, the people of Wash- ingten are the most interested in preserving this unity of interests, which bas rendered us glo- rious abroad and successful and prosperous at home. [Cheers.] 1 do not think that it will be becoming in me to enter into any discussion of the great question which has so happily termin- ated. I therefore must conclude these brief re- marks with again repeating to you how heartily 1 feel your kindness, and how gratefoliy 1 shall ever remember it to the last period of my exist- ence. [Cheers } Senator Toombs, who, together with several other gentlemen, was with the Pre-ident at the time, on being cailed for, also addressed the crowd. He was followed by Senator Gwin, the Hon. Jas. B. Clay, Hon. Jobn Letcher, and Hon. J. W. Stevenson We abstain from publishing these speeches, as they have appeared in the morning papers, and would fill up our columns to the exclusion of la- ter news. ‘They all embody sentiments of lofty patriotism, and the speakers contended tbat the settlement of the Kansas question was on a basis at once honorable and fat: to both the North and the South, and more calculated to restore harmo- ny and good feeling between the sections than any other plan which could be devised. Prom the Executive Mansion the “serenading paty’’ proceeded tothe residences of the Hon. J Glaney Jones, of Pennsylvania, Hon. James S Green, of Missomi, Hon. Wm. it English, of Indiana, and Hon. A G_ Brown, of Mississi pi, who severally addressed them in reply to their applause. Calls were also made on Senator Hun- ter, of Virginia, who was absent from his lodg- ings, and on Hon. A. H. Stephens, of Georgia, who was indisposed. The procession broke up al twelve o'clock. After the band had left the Executive mansion, the eannoniers took their field-piece to the Cen- tal Ma ket place, and there fired a national sa- lute of thirty-two guns. The new State of Kan- sas adds another star to the banner of freedom, and auvther gun to the Union salute. Every thing passed off quietly, and the delight was no doubt sincere, that this agitation is at length Uanished from the halis of Congress. proposed for the Tas Stax Demotisnep.©Those who know aught of our local politics of the last four years will be not a little amused at the denunciation of the editor of the Star, for not being sufficiently Anti-Know Nothingish and Democratic to suit the current ends of that reliable and distinguished Anti-Kaow Nothing and Democrat, Mr. 3. Yorbe AtLee, the chairman of the meeting iu the Sev- enth Ward, that utterly demolished the Star, a few nights ago. ‘Yo out Democratic friends who are men of character and brains.the only answer to tbeir resolation necessary on our part, is to point our finger thus, at the meeting’s chairman, to expose the folly of its assumption to judye of the soundness of any one’s Democracy and Anti- K now Nothing ism—more especially of that of one who has donc hie part as the Star's editor has per- formed his in all real Democratic party and Auti-Know Notbing contests for twenty years past. including that of the Washington monu- ment and the Herbert question, which were ley iti- mate ixsues between the parties, though in the latter. Herbert did bave a liitle bedy Democrats, whose conduct in standing ween him and justice, brought such disgrace on the fair fame of the Democracy as to require intense labor ler hourly risks of hiv life, on the part of the editor of the Star, to ward off the threat- ened eflvct of their identification with Herbert's cause to the futare of the Democratic party of Wasbington city As being apropos to this subject, we append the following brief communication from an old respected and unswerving Democratic citizen of Washington Editor of the Star: I have noticed, of late, that several resolutions have been passed at two of the ward meetings, recommending th:t patronage be withdrawn from your + rof the first magni- tude,” because, I presume, you will not take an open part azainst your own brother, in the pend- ing municipal contest. Now, 1! approve your course, it is one that must be commended by all vight-thinking people. You know I am an old- fashioned fellow, and have a way of thinking for myself 1 would suggest, Mr. Wallach, whether these demonstrations against your independent course are not in part stimulated by meanness; for | perceive that one of the leading spirits was a Koow-Nothing two years azo, and at him you th m aimed many a bir shaft. He, with other similar patent Anti-Know-Notbings. is now taking his rerenge! Noan Tas Trir to Mouxt Verxox —A large por- tiom ef the members of the National Musical Convention, recently held at the Smithsonian In- stitution, paid a visit to Mount Vernon on Satur- day, per steamer Thomas Coliyer, which boat was chartered especially for the purpose. The trip was a most delightful one to all who partici- pated init. A piano was taken along, and during the trip down the river the cluster of singers on the deck of the steamer waked the echoes far and near with glad music, and the enjoyment was universal. The company remained at the grave of Washington an hour of two, and then came back to Fort a aio they passed a couple of hours in strolling aloug the river shore, and upon the heights about the Fort, and partoox ofa pic-nic dinner, and then returned to the city well pleased with the trip, arriving about 4 ° check Captain Baker, of the Collyer, exerted bimself to bis utmost to make the excursion a delightful one to all, and received the thanks of whole company for his polite attentions.

Among the gratifying incidents, mentioned by the paster of this chureh on yesterday was bis receipt of a letter from young men of various de- nomiuations, asking for a prayer meeting for three-quarters of an bour, from © to9 p. m., #0 as to accommodate those of them who are clerks in stores or engaged in mechanical branches ‘The appointment was accordingly made, also for 6 and 5 o'clock every morning to continue one- haif hour. ‘This large programme will give all Classes ef onr citizens an opportunity of being present at these social services Tue Curssreace & Omio Caxnat —The Na- tional Intelligencer says: ‘During the week end- ing Saturday evening last ninety-one boats ar- tived at the Georgetown Collection effice, of which above sixty were freighted with coal from Comberiand.

Judes Dunlop, Morseil and Merrick. The first call of the trial docket occupied them up the hour of ad- journment. A Butianr Scurux Favernarsy.—Seturdey last, officer J. F. Wollard arrested a young man, named A. Hale Wilford, on suspicion of belng connected with a scheme to swindle the incau- ‘lous citizens of the West and Northweft. It is very similar to the notorious & Co., alias Pratt & Co. schemes, recently discovered in New York. The young man was detected by his cor- Tespondence, and his letters indicated that the Swindle promised to be profitable. He was taken to the City Post Ottice, where he signed an oider to retain all letters to A. H. Wilford & Co., and send them to the dead letter office to be returned tothe writers. Some of the letters were opened and found to contaii money sent by various per- sons who had been gulled by the scheme. He very cheerfully pac the order to the Postmas- ter, and gave security that he would relinquish the business altogether. There being no direct charge he was permitted to depart. Since this act of officer Wollard brings no pecuniary reward, he certainly deserves the more credit for his prompt attention to ay? & The following from the Northwest, published at Dubogne, Iowa, will exhibit the swindle as practised on the inhabitants of that distant re- gion: “Agents Wanted —The great gift sale of gold ncils, by A. H. Wilford & Co, Washington, C., offers an excellent chance to agents to make afew dollars, with little or no expense. We are manufacturing and selling beautiful solid gold pencils for $5 each, (the actual retail Price) and giving each purchaser a gift worth from $2 to $200. ‘h purchaser of a pencil is sure of a i : or it may be worth 85, $10, $15, $20, $30, $50. 75, $100, or $200. The prizes are distributed to purchasers by a simple plan of drawing, and as soon as the name of a purchaser is received With the $5, his pencil and gift are put up in a small box, in a safe manner, and sent to the owner by mail post-paid. Our plan gives perfect satisfaction, ax each purchaser can sell or tiade his pencil for all it costs him, and retain tne gift gratis.” Tre Wasntxctox Lieut Ixnrantry ExcaM? ® MENT is conducted in the ‘ regulation’ style— that is, posting sentinels, dealing rations, com- pany drills, &c.

The site selected 1s well adapted to the purpose, and is situated on the Eastern Branch, some four squares beyond the Navy Yard, in the vicinity of the ruins of the old bridge.

It was intended to tender this affair to the company as an offset to their inhos- pitable reception at Richmond. It was to be kept private from them until all the arrang®ments were complete, and then they were to be informed of it. Its management is now a mystery, both to the subscribers and the company; hence the in- quiry. Come, Messrs. Managers, let us have the supper, or a return of ali moneys received.

Tueir trial was fixed for to-morrow. ‘The case of Essex, tixed for trial to-day, was Postponed to a future day. Benjamin Ogle was then put to the bar, and on being questioned by the Court as to whether he bad anything to say why sentence should not be passed upon him, replied that be had—that Mr Ciements, one of the witnesses for the United States in his case, had perjured himself. This was all he said, excepting to ask the Court to sive bim one week in jail before sending him down to the penitentiary. This request was not ytanted, and the Judge then sentenced bim to be imprisoned in the District penitentiary for a pe- riod of eight years, and added that he regretted that in this case this term was the greatest that the law would allow him to give. The prisoner was then remanded to the jail. Arrican M. £. Conrerence.--On Saturday morning, (Bishop Payne in the chair,) after the religious services by Rev. J.P.

Fearaon, and occupied by a couple of families. The house, which was valued at about 3600, and on which there was no insurance, was entirely consumed. Each of the fainilies saved most of their furniture. The Vigilant Fire Compa “y was romptly on the spot, but, owing to the difficulty in obtaining water, and the combustible nature of the building, couid render no essential service. The Union Prayer Meetings are to be continued during the present week. “One will be held at the Dombarton-street ME. Church this after- noon, commencing at 5 o’clock; at the Congress- street M. P. Church on Wednesday afternoon, and at the Bridge-street Presbyterian Church on Friday afternoon, commencing at the same hour. Some of our most respectable citiz-ns are loud in their complaints about thé polished acts of rowdyism which were perpetrated on Beall street yesterday afternoon, by a parcel of half grown boys and youths, or would-be young men, such as exercising their skill in stone-heaving, making een remarks to passers-by, and in- sulting respectable females. Look sharp, hope- fuls, we have your names, and nothing but the Persuasions ofgsome of the aeuticved parties pre- vents us from yivinz them in full. Some of you have been guilty of similar acts of rowdyism upon this street before, and if we are troubled with any more complaints your parents and the deere shall know who you are. None of your ted respectability shall in the future serve you as a cleak to hide your very disreputable conduct from the public, and that scorn and con- dempation which it deserves The Vigilant boys are out on parade to-day, and make quite a handsome display indeed.
